Welcome to South County Community Handbell Choir's Home Page
South County Community Handbell Choir's mission is to bring handbell music to South Orange County.
Rev Up Your Handbell Engines, our summer workshop, was a rousing success. If you are a ringer, you will want to put July 17, 2027, on your calendar for our next workshop, Handbells Soar!
We start our rehearsals for the Fall season on Monday, August 31st. If you are interested in ringing, please contact us.
Something new for the Fall; a class on Handbell Ringing through the City of San Clemente's Recreation Department. Tuesday nights at 6:00 pm, starting September 15th, our Artistic Director will be teaching students the joy of ringing. Handbells are very unique in that it takes multiple people to make the music. Experienced musicians can be next to novice ringers and make wonderful music. Ringing in a handbell choir creates deep connections on the musical level and on the personal level. No experience is required. The classes are open to San Clemente residents as well as non-residents. See our events tab for details or you can go to Catalog - City of San Clemente and look up Handbell Ringing.
Our Fall season will include playing at San Clemente's Santa's Village by the Sea on Saturday, December 5th and then our concert benefitting Family Assistance Ministries on Sunday, December 13th. In addition, local handbell musicians will be providing free holiday music at the Outlets Christmas Tree on Saturday, November 28th. Check out our Events page for details.
South County is excited to announce an opportunity for our patrons to “sponsor” our 2026/2027 Concerts. Please see our “About” page for details.
